Dear museum list,

Many years ago, one of our volunteers attached many original 
photographs to cardboard with double-sided tape.  I want to get them 
off and scan them and get them out of the light, but I'm afraid of 
damaging them.  They're really stuck.  Any suggestions for solvents or 
techniques for removing these photos?  They're taped on both side of 
the cardboard, so I can't cut them off the poster, either.

Thanks for your help.
